Maybe Zimmerman should consider investing into this some day: (if he gets some money from lawsuits, book / movie etc)

(CNN) - While some architects compete over height, others compete with shape.
After China's "Donut" Hotel (aka the Sheraton Huzhou Hot Springs Resort) hit monitors earlier this month, another eye-opening hotel design has just been announced -- also with a massive hole in the middle of the building.
Designed by Spanish architecture firm OOIIO, the "Unbalance Hotel" (the project's working title) resembles a tilted photo frame at the edge of a high cliff in Lima, Peru.
"Lima hasn´t got a representative iconic building that brings the more than 8 million inhabitants of the city to be well known worldwide," OOIIO director Joaquín Millán tells CNN.
"We wanted to create something radical, strong. A landmark, a building that makes you think, a shape that shakes your imagination.
"We know that as soon as you do something that radical on such a dominant location there are going to be a lot of people hating it. And some of them also loving it.
"This is what we want -- make people talk about architecture, and what to do and not to do with Lima's urban landscape."
